“ Insomnia is my absolute favorite place in Auburn Alabama. Very friendly staff and excellent food that is always fresh cooked to order. We have been eating here for probably 15 or 20 years and it remains one of my favorite places. All the food is still the freshest best tasting food around. My wife ordered a Double bacon cheeseburger this time and it was huge, fresh, and delicious. We highly recommend eating here. ”
“ One of my absolute favorite places to eat in Auburn and arguably one of the best places to get a cheeseburger. The lobby is a bit off putting but just give the a shot before turning around. I promise it will be worth it!!!!! ”
“ A true Auburn gem. Its appearance may leave you questioning the quality, but stop judging. This place has some of the best late night food, burgers, chicken fingers, and steak tips around. Insomnia brings serious business to the table and takes good care of their costumers. Stop on by if you haven’t already! ”
“ DELICIOUS! Steak kabob was tender and seasoning was delicious. I loved all the vegetables mixed in. The burger was amazing and huge! A beautifully made lunch. We will be back! ”
“ Insomnia is one of the hidden gems of the Auburn culinary scene. The food is delicious, not terribly expensive, and the servings are generous. I go for the Mediterranean standards, but the pile of fries they serve with the pita wraps are the best in town. It’s like a great food truck experience without the truck. ”
“ Great food, great service, and the best of times. When I think of a restaurant, I immediately think of Insomnia Deli and Grill. The hospitality shown whenever I go is unlike any other. The best gyros in Auburn. It is truly worth the visit. ”
“ You know how it's the total dives in town that sometimes have the best hidden meals? This is one of them. Clearly cooked with love, the burgers are ground by hand and cooked fresh. Delicious. And the best part is that they are far better priced than most other shows in town. 12 bucks will get you an entire combo of a huge burger, fries, and a drink. ”
“ Insomnia has the best hamburgers in the area! Fresh and hot and huge! Great fries too. They make them as you order so always hot! They have the best shish kabobs, salads and Gyros around. Their menu has a lot of variety for anyone’s food cravings. The portions are enormous! We go there often! This is a hidden gem in Auburn. While the restaurant is in an old building the food is the star. The owners are super friendly and kind. If you haven’t been definitely check it out you won’t be disappointed! ”
